(a)
To determine: The tendency of strong acids to lose its proton as compared to a weak acids.
Introduction:
The water is amphoteric in nature. The water readily reacts with bases and acids. The strong acids and strong bases dissociate more readily than weak acids and weak bases.
(b)
To determine: Whether the strong acids have higher or lower value of (Ka) when compared to weak acids.
Introduction:
The water is amphoteric in nature. The water readily reacts with bases and acids. The strong acids and strong bases dissociate more than weak acids and weak bases.
(c)
To determine: Whether the strong acid have a higher or lower dissociation constant (pKa) when compared to weak acid.
Introduction:
The water is amphoteric in nature. The water readily reacts with bases and acids. The strong acids and strong bases dissociate more than weak acids and weak bases.
